It's Not Easy to Be a Man After Travelling to the Future

1301 Wake Up!

“This toy is pretty sensitive to the environment-altering domain concepts.” Domain realm masters were all unique existents. However, those who were considered to be difficult to deal with were those who could completely conceal themselves within the environment they were in. Unless they randomly hit, they wouldn’t show any trace of themselves.

Those types of domain realm masters were born to be spies. In order to guard against these types of domain realm masters, each nation had developed different equipment to detect domain concept energies like this detection tool the Federation’s military headquarters’ research institute had invented. Caesar also had invented something similar. Although the detectors were essentially doing the same thing, there was still a clear distinction between the good quality and bad quality detectors. In reality, the technology in them hadn’t been really perfected. Additionally, the cost of making such a tool was very high. Most of the somewhat capable nations were all trying to get past the problem with cost. Even if such technology was well-known in the upper echelons of each nation, the average citizen was still completely unaware of the existence of such detectors.

If the people from the Flying Dragon Special Forces hadn’t not shown her the detector, Ling Lan probably wouldn’t have known that the Federation had already invented a tool that could detect domain concept energies.

Realizing that they had hit Ling Lan, the three who attacked became even more intense in their search. They paid even more attention to the detector in their hands.

Their detectors reacted again. The three of them were overjoyed at the reaction and immediately flung out their chains. However, in the following moments, their expression turned grave. It was because the direction they flung their chains towards were all different.

Their detectors gave three different results but there was only one opponent so this meant that their detectors were wrong.

Ring! A seemingly silent ringing sound traveled through the air around them.

Lines of threads revealed themselves in front of their eyes in the space around them, trapping the three of them in the center. They were completely surrounded by these threads. It was as though they fell into a web of spiders with no chance of escaping.

Seeing this, the three of them shook their right hand quickly and the chains shattered into countless needles before shooting out towards all sides wildly in an attempt to make space for them.

The overwhelming number of golden needles made for a terrifying scene. It gave off the feeling of being swarmed by a ton of hornets.

However, in the next second, these flying needles suddenly slowed to a halt before dropping like flies to the floor.

The three men grimaced because they could see their needle being encased in ice. By encasing them in ice, it cut their flow domain concept energy to the needles, stopping them from being able to remotely control them.

At that moment, Ling Lan slowly appeared in front of them, standing not far from the three men. All of her fingers trembled slightly and ten crystal-clear threads appeared out of thin air.

“Impudent!” The black-cloaked man sitting on the tree branch shouted angrily when he saw what was about to happen to his comrades. Then he disappeared from the tree.

In the blink of an eye, he appeared beside Ling Lan with a lightning bolt in his hand.

Right as the lightning bolt was about to hit Ling Lan, Ling Lan turned her head and looked at it coldly.

Bang! An ice hammer appeared out of thin air and ruthlessly clashed with the lightning bolt.

The clash between two domain concept energies instantly caused a deafening explosion.

The lightning bolt was instantly broken apart by the ice hammer. After dispersing the lightning bolt, the hammer continued to ruthlessly fly towards the black-cloaked man behind the lightning bolt.

The black-cloaked man snorted coldly at the incoming hammer. He clenched his crackling fist and pushed his fist towards the ice hammer. He was confident that his lightning bolt could shatter the ice hammer.

Bang!

His fist came in contact with the ice hammer. After holding on for one to two seconds, the black-cloaked man spat out a mouthful of blood before being sent flying backwards. He flew backwards until he hit the trunk of the tree, breaking it in the process.

The black-cloaked man slid to the ground before falling unconscious. After a few seconds, the prone body began to twitch. The blacked-cloaked man slowly regained his consciousness. He slowly pushed his body up and held his forehead in pain.

His right hand was trembling uncontrollably. That ice hammer, although it seemed to be small and harmless, the power behind the hammer was still terrifying. The muscles and bones in his right arm were still trembling.

Ling Lan gave the black-cloaked man a glance and then no longer paid any attention to him. She focused her attention back to the three men who were inside her spider web. Her expression was calm as she slowly raised her hands.

The threads around the three of them suddenly began to move closer towards them. Seeing this, the three men didn’t hesitate and chose to transform their bodies into their domain element in order to evade the deathly blow.

However, right after their bodies transformed into their elements, they reappeared in their original location with defeated looks on their faces.

The threads actually had properties that could block out every element outside of the ice element, and before they knew it, the threads closed in on them, encasing them in cocoons.

After Ling Lan slightly shook her fingers, the three of them felt the threads around their bodies begin to tighten. It became tighter and tighter. Their skin was cut open and blood started to pour out. The originally crystal-clear cocoon slowly turned blood red.

The three of them realized that if they didn’t escape in the next few seconds, they would be cut into mince meat.

“Stop, stop, Ling Lan. Are planning on becoming a criminal and betray the Federation?” shouted the black-cloaked man after he spat out some blood

Ling Lan turned around towards him with an indifferent yet mocking look on her face. “Isn’t this the path you want me to choose?”

“If that’s the case, I’ll just be what you want.” After saying that, Ling Lan clenched her fist and the three bloodied cocoons instantly exploded. Countless amounts of blood poured out, staining the ground blood red.

“Ling Lan!” shouted the black-cloaked man angrily. He angrily struck the ground with his fist. His entire body jumped up from the ground and then he ruthlessly rushed towards Ling Lan.

Ling Lan killed his three comrades. He definitely needed Ling Lan to pay with his life.

“Hmph!” Ling Lan didn’t even look and only raised her right hand. She then clenched it towards the black-cloaked man.

A ton of ice element particles began materializing around the black-cloaked man. It solidified into an ice coffin, sealing him inside it.

The black-cloaked man watched helplessly as he became sealed within the coffin. In the coffin, he could see Ling Lan snapping her fingers. Then he watched as his body and the coffin disintegrate into ice particles, completely disappearing from this world.

The last scene he saw was Ling Lan’s shadow as she left. That shadow looked determined and indifferent. It was as though killing the four of them was something that wasn’t considered to be anything difficult.

A person like that either had a clear conscience, or he was completely determined with what he was doing... The black-cloaked man was regretting his decision. He felt that facing such an opponent was a clear mistake. It was just that he had realized the mistake too late, and the price they had to pay for the mistake was their lives.

“Boss, boss, boss, wake up. Come on, wake up.” After dying, he still could actually hear voices? What was happening?

“Boss, boss, if you continue to sleep like that, we won’t be able to finish our mission.” This time, he finally heard the voice clearly. It was the voice of the comrades who died with him? Could they have encountered each other in the underworld? However, what was this mission he was speaking of?
